My tailgate rattles a little, but the easiest way to find what it, is grab a beer, lay under the rear of your truck and take a minute to look at everything, shake stuff, bump stuff, rubber mallets help with this (Just be nice).

I was pulling my driveline yesterday and was just taking a minute to look everything over under the rear and found that when they did my exhaust they left the stock hanger bracket in the rubber mount and it was twisted in a way the when you bumped it it would rattle (Old Rubber).

Good luck.
